Miscellaneous Notes. Additional financing may be required for CI members located in Canada, and will vary depending on the province and other factors to be established individually. SA-CI clients are encouraged to build in a cushion of funds to offset any inflation in costs over time. Fees in the SA-CI Fee Schedule are subject to periodic review and adjustment. There will be no fee increase until the year 2018 (at the earliest), and the fee increase will not be more than 10 percent in 2018 or 10 percent per year thereafter. Additional procedures not currently described in the Protocol may be offered by SA as extra-cost options as they become available. Such procedures may include liquid ventilation, new medications, and enhanced cryoprotection. As of June 1, 2016, post-mortem transport of a cryonics patient via air ambulance or similar sized charter aircraft ranges in price from $12,000 to $42,000, depending on the date of travel, distance to Detroit, point-of-origin and re-positioning fees, wait time fees, taxes and airport fees, re-fueling requirements, and current pricing for the type of aircraft available. For these reasons, for CI members who have indicated that they wish to have private air ambulance or charter aircraft for their transport to Detroit, SA will simply pass through to the CI member the actual cost of the best quote provided to SA for the fastest private air transport to Detroit at the time of need. In the event that the CI member has insufficient funds allocated for private air transport to Detroit, the fastest commercial air flight available at the time of need will be used.
